I believe we are nearing a point where there are enough irreconcilable differences between those Americans who want to control other Americans and those Americans who want to be left alone that separation is the only peaceable alternative. –Walter E. Williams

When in the Course of human events it becomes necessary for one people to dissolve the political bands which have connected them with another and to assume among the powers of the earth, the separate and equal station to which the Laws of Nature and of Nature’s God entitle them, a decent respect to the opinions of mankind requires that they should declare the causes which impel them to the separation.
–A Bunch of Dead White Males with Funny-Looking Wigs, aka the Founding Fathers

Everybody believed that the American Civil War made any further thought of secession unthinkable, but never estimate the ability of Barack Hussein Obama to foment divisive conditions. Numerous states’ Attorneys General are already suing to block the implementation of his health care plan as unconstitutional, noting not only its mandate that individuals buy a product they may not want or need but also requirements for states to spend more on Medicaid. Obama also supports taxes on carbon emissions and/or cap and trade mandates to enrich his campaign contributors at Goldman Sachs and J.P. Morgan Chase (as identified by fellow Democrat Kirsten Gillibrand as opposed to conservative talk radio). In other words, Obama proposes to do to the country’s remaining industrialized regions what protectionist tariffs once did to the South, thus creating the conditions that led to secession and the Civil War. Mainstream columnist Walter E. Williams has finally said what needs to be said in “Parting Company;” Barack Obama has made secession thinkable. Williams however prefers alternatives to secession, and so do we: election of a Republican majority that will repeal ObamaCare and put the final kibosh on cap and trade, and repeal of Barry the Community Organizer himself in November 2012.

What Williams is really talking about is loss of what the Chinese call the Mandate of Heaven, or the leader’s perceived utility to the people. The President of the United States is a sick joke who has insulted or betrayed allies ranging from the United Kingdom to Israel and Poland, bowed to foreign monarchs, and appointed to high office individuals whose presence in a circus sideshow would insult the self-respecting freaks therein. A sick joke and an assortment of freaks like 9/11 denier Van Jones, professional hate-monger Al Sharpton, Jeremiah “God Damn America” Wright, Michael “There were a whole lot of white people crying” Pfleger, and Joe “Big Bidening Deal” Biden cannot command the respect or trust of a teenager let alone an adult American citizen, and they cannot therefore earn or keep the Mandate of Heaven.

Barack Obama has, like a child who takes apart a watch without knowing how he will put it back together again, changed American health care in a way that will destroy it completely in the absence of prompt repeal. He has, without explanation, returned to the United Kingdom a bust of Sir Winston Churchill that was given to the United States as a gift.

His Secretary of State has offered to mediate between Argentina and the United Kingdom over the Falkland Islands, as if there was any controversy over the islands’ ownership that required mediation. He has withdrawn missile interceptors from Poland and Czechoslovakia after leaders of those nations, along with the Bush Administration, poured enormous effort and political capital into basing them there.

He has undermined the safety of the United States by declaring that we will not use nuclear weapons to respond to chemical or biological weapons of mass destruction, as was our previous policy.

Barack Obama is a 21st century Caligula, the egocentric narcissist with delusions of godhood who declared war on King Neptune while he made his horse a Roman consul–but at least the Romans got the whole horse. What we have is Mike Judge’s Beavis and Butthead doing America, but this time it’s not just a movie.

Williams continues,

Just as in a marriage, where vows are broken, our human rights protections guaranteed by the U.S. Constitution have been grossly violated by a government instituted to protect them. The Democrat-controlled Washington is simply an escalation of a process that has been in full stride for at least two decades. There is no evidence that Americans who are responsible for and support constitutional abrogation have any intention of mending their ways.

This is really a restatement of very old definitions of the Social Contract, in which people agree to surrender a very limited range of personal liberties in exchange for a government’s protection of their rights. When that government violates the social contract, the people have a right to reconsider the desirability of the government they have created, and either change or abolish it. This is in fact the basis of the Declaration of Independence, a document with which Barry the Obamvis and Bidenhead Do America

It is also quite possible that Barack Obama participated in a crime, namely orchestration of illegal Internet gambling to fund his campaign, which would subject him to impeachment and removal from office. We think Orly Taitz would be far more successful, and taken far more seriously, if she spent her time on this as opposed to the “birther” issue. We personally received solicitations from the Obama campaign, including one signed by Obama himself, that offer a chance to win an expenses-paid trip to have dinner with Obama in exchange for a donation of five dollars or more. It includes all three elements necessary to constitute a lottery and therefore use of the Internet to gamble across state lines in violation of the U.S. Code: (1) payment of consideration, (2) element of chance, and (3) a prize.

(10) Unlawful internet gambling.—

(A) In general.— The term “unlawful Internet gambling” means to place, receive, or otherwise knowingly transmit a bet or wager by any means which involves the use, at least in part, of the Internet where such bet or wager is unlawful under any applicable Federal or State law in the State or Tribal lands in which the bet or wager is initiated, received, or otherwise made.

Minnesota law enforcement said the “Dinner with Barack” lotteries were in fact illegal, and warned the campaign that it had to either stop or allow entry without a contribution. This seems to place the Obama campaign on record for breaking the laws of at least one state as described above, and therefore in violation of the U.S. Code–and Barack Obama was involved personally in doing this.

So we have a President who has not only made the United States a joke at home and abroad, but who personally participated in what might be an actual crime (Internet gambling) similar to that for which a sports bar owner in Wilkes-Barre is currently facing prosecution.

It seems that Eric Holder has one U.S. Code for a little guy like the owner of Patte’s Sports Bar and an entirely different U.S. Code for Obama, which is what we expect from an individual with Eric Holder’s character, ethics, and integrity.

We also think Orly Taitz is making herself look like an idiot for pursuing the “birther” issue instead of a possible crime for which reams of evidence, including archived and downloaded Web pages, are available and whose proof beyond a reasonable doubt would constitute cause to send the sick joke the way of Richard Nixon. In other words, we could be rid of this guy well before 2012 (especially since Republicans will hold a majority in Congress next year) if somebody went after a real “high crime or misdemeanor” instead of what looks more and more like a conspiracy theory suitable for the Twilight Zone.

Constitutional Law Instructor ought to have at least passing familiarity (along with his oath to uphold the Constitution of the United States).

The breakup of the United States, even into a North American Commonwealth consisting of former Blue and Red States, is nothing for which any sane person or patriot would hope. Barack Obama and his cohorts have, however, created conditions under which a respected mainstream columnist like Walter E. Williams would make this previously unthinkable scenario thinkable. If we wish to prevent the unthinkable from becoming reality, we encourage the following actions:

(1) Vote out every single Member of Congress who supported Obama’s health care “reform” fraud. From our end, this includes Kanjorski (D-PA) and Specter (D-PA). We are not happy about Pat Toomey driving Specter out of the Republican Party, and we voted for Specter over Toomey in 2004, but Specter’s vote for ObamaCare means Toomey has our vote this November. Needless to say, Harry Reid has to go and it looks like Bart Stupak is already trying to avoid running into the door on his way out.

(2) If your state’s Attorney General is filing suit to block implementation of ObamaCare, support his or her efforts. Pennsylvania’s Tom Corbett is doing this, so he has earned our vote for him for Governor in November.

(3) We need an attorney who will go after Obama for the “Dinner with Barack” lotteries which, if proven to be illegal Internet gambling, would in fact be cause for impeachment and removal from office.

Boy o boy wouldn't a Walter Williams + Thomas Sowell ticket be just the ticket!!I doubt that either one would be interested.Their place is writing enlightened provocative stories and keeping the Maoists machinations exposed to the public view .

Order of Secession During the American Civil War

Order of Seceding States
"Our History Seems To be Repeating It Self !"

The election of Abraham Lincoln in 1860 was the final straw for many southerners. In all 11 states seceded from the Union. Four of these (Virginia, Arkansas, North Carolina, and Tennessee) did not secede until after the Battle of Fort Sumter that occurred on April 12, 1861. Five additional states were Border Slave States that did not secede from the Union: Missouri, Kentucky, West Virginia, Maryland and Delaware.
